Note di degustazione
The 2012 On The White Keys Artists' Reserve is rich, pliant and intense, with all of the fruit pushed forward, and tons of textural plushness. In 2012, the Reserve is more about size and intensity rather than nuance, and yet all the elements are very nicely balanced. This is one of the richer, bolder wines in this flight.

(an 85/15 blend of sauvignon blanc and semillon): Bright, green-tinged yellow. Lovely perfume combines pungent lime skin, stone fruits, lemon drop and essential oils. Dense, sappy and opulent yet somehow weightless, conveying a powerful impression of energy to the flavors of nectarine, lime oil and honey. The semillon contributes roundness. Finishes sexy and long, in need of a year or so in bottle to develop more complexity. Always a splendid blend.
The 2012 On The White Keys, Arietta's Sauvignon/Semillon blend, is drop-dead gorgeous. Varietal notes abound in this floral beautifully textured white. Hints of apricot and yellow stone fruits with just the barest hint of tropical overtones linger on the close.
